Mine has gone through road/commuter to fixed/ sscx/commuter currently then will proceed happily on its way to some kind of downtube shifted ultra-romance pleaser (WIP).
Commuting duties were taken up by a CdF. Apaprently cantilever brakes can be set up to work, but I have found that cable discs > cantis. plus 725 CdF with carbon fork is lighter and more sensible proportioned.
I love(d) mine. Served me well as a heavy tourer, then as a road bike (club runs and very hilly audaxes) then as a single-speed cross bike etc etc. Didn't do any of those jobs perfectly (maybe the singlespeed) but gave them each a good punt.
